The trip truly exceeded our expectations — from the get-go, communication and planning of the trip with Mr Thinley was seamless, he even kindly took time out of his schedule to check in on us, and we all had a nice chat together.
Our driver, Mr Kinzang navigated the tricky roads of Bhutan like the true pro he is. Despite his years of experience (or because of!), he never took the familiarity of the routes for granted, staying alert and focused throughout all the long drives to ensure an absolute peace of mind on all our parts. We cannot thank him enough.
And of course, our guide Mr Namgay, who went above and beyond to ensure that our trip in Bhutan was as comfortable and impactful as possible. He was patient and expertly guided us in our treks, and even thoughtfully packed and carried our umbrellas and walking sticks without our asking. With reverence and earnestness, he shared his knowledge on Buddhism, weaving together the country’s beliefs, history, and culture, which led to a more profound understanding of the country. Despite our family of 3 having very different interests and travel styles, Namgay managed to make it all work which was no mean feat! By day 4 of the trip, my mum cheerily described Namgay to be "someone who feels just like [her] son." I'll always remember your stories shared Namgay, and sincerely wish you all the best in life!
The thing that stuck with me during and after the trip was how the people in Bhutan were incredibly sincere. Everyone we met and interacted with were proof of that. Would highly recommend Bhutan Best Inbound Tour!
